easiest way is to make sure the motor is at tdc when you take it apart. The timing marks on both cams will line up together in the middle )- -(

When you put the cams back in, just make sure the marks are back pointing at each other.

I've done both the tdc way and the marking the belt and gears. My opinion is the tdc way is best/easiest.

Make you line up the crank with the mark on the timing belt cover and not the one on the block.
